Did you know if you spoiler something, it has to be true?

OP is a faggot

Let's see, one of these things is not like the others:

SBM 2001

FF VII 1997

Undertale 2015

Super Mario 64 1996

LoZ:OoT 1998

LoZ:ALthP 1991

SMRPG 1998

MGS3 2004

…or maybe pitting a brand-new much (over) hyped game, still in recent memory, against games that are ALL more than a decade old, with Link to the Past, most egregiously, being OLD ENOUGH TO DRINK, is bullshit.

This isn't so much evidence of viral marketing via botting so much as evidence of viral marketing via bracket-rigging.

Dear /v/,

We love you, but if you're going to conspiracy-theory over a game you think is over-hyped which is something I agree with at least try to use the correct conspiracy-theory.

Part of the conspiracy is making a fucking good game.

This is what we have been asking them to do from the start. To make their own games and to make them good.

if this is their plan, then their plan is playing by the rules

Except when they're trying to rig pools. I wonder what to do. They're intentionally trying to pit us against actually a good game. The only one they have.

>undershit is shit shit.

Lel. Judging developers by their ideals is exactly what sjws want to do. You don't want to do that. Stop being retarded.

In the end, this is a terrible plan, because they can't actually afford to make all good games. It's impossible for them.

>they can't actually afford to make all good games. It's impossible for them.

The whole concept of the oppression olympics point-scoring and the "progressive stack" sits directly in opposition to the ideals of meritocracy and "let the market decide" in determining the consensus of whether a game is "good" or not or "worth your money" or not.

For instance; that's why Chelsea Valkenburger had to blow five guys to get positive-press for her shitty twine non-game; not because she was a "poor oppressed woman", but her game was shit and she knows it In that, she used her "feminine privilege": I.E. utilizing the fact that humanity a higher value on female sex, over male sex, and leveraged that, to literally whore herself out for good market PR., as her game would never ever make it the marketplace of ideas without incestuous feminist-clique boosterism.

I've said it before in other threads, while I've herd the hype; I've decided to give Undertale a pass because it's "problematic" and not worth my money; I'm not boycotting it, per se, but I will not pay money to be preached at, or snarked at, by pretentious hipster devs.

Despite OP being a fag and paid-shill-fag in that other thread being a separate issue that deserves investigation; I'd like to get more info on who put these pools together, because there is an obvious agenda on how the brackets were fixed and I would like do some digging on how the rest of that whole thing was possibly rigged.

Mods can you please un-anchor this thread?

4 of the games are nintendotard bullshit thats nearly 20 years old, problem is all the nintenfags who constantly spam forums and polls with the same shitty games from the Snes/N64 era

OP get your shit together, if you go to tumblr you'll see the undertale faggotry is everywhere, its the new FNAF, the flavor of the month all the furfags and bronies are talking and fapping to but wont actually play let alone BUY the fucking game………same as happened to FNAF

Niggers are just raiding the polls

I'm familiar with the contest board and can tell you that there isn't anything there. Admin of GameFAQs, SBAllen, made the contest. Many of the matches involved were set up so that you would have expected matchups that put games of similar strength level head-to-head against each other down the road. Some of them happened, like Super Metroid vs. Majora's Mask, and some didn't, like Pokemon RBY vs. FF7. This is knowledge gained from 13 years of contests, seeing things change, and some estimations.

In terms of the winner of matches, the results were legit. The first win it had against Mass Effect 3 was from Tumblr. The second, against Fallout 3, was more Twitter. Voting spikes happened whenever things spread well on either platform and eventually reddit was involved too. The game was consistently rallied and eventually counter-rallies for Melee and RBY were made, showing similar patterns on the opposite side. Undertale was just the right game at the right time to win the contest. Rallies aren't anything new and have always been a part of the contest, as early as Planet Gamecube pushing Mario back in 2002 to Draven in 2014 to Undertale in 2015, it's the same kind of thing. Other sites can just bring in a lot more numbers than the GameFAQs voting base. If you're still trying to dig for some reason you're going to be better off checking the contest board because there's nothing else that anybody can give you and no, you aren't going to find any server data.

Stay mad gayfags. That's what you get for unceasingly raiding /utg/ you retarded faggots

>>313037

also SJs actually tried to kill it, first. >>313262

and, what, you don't think /cow/ was stuffing those numbers? or 4/v/? SJs had nothing to do with this rigging. (in fact it turned out they were all rigging Smash Bros for some reason)

/mlp/ accounted for at least 1700 votes, using the cytube to organise, and most didn't even vidya anymore. My own WoT group stuffed as well and spread the message. About the only hard one was pokemon, that one caused furfag splintering, especially fchan. They splintered hard enough that they stopped voting.

Also gamefags fucked up and tried to bring Pewds into it. He decided to play/LP it instead rather than shill Smash. It was an endless trainwreck on the luesers' side.

>>313102

^This

on both counts.

Kunta Kente is really enjoying those free shekels. It's only got around a 33% completion rate, only about half of the people have played it. Niggas would rather see e-celebs react to it than play it themselves.

Also 75% bought it at full price. He rich, bitch.

>>313152

Also this. But I figure it would've won regardless due to sheer salt production and raw lulz material. Someone would've tagged /b/ in eventually if it started coming close.
